Can you connect two DPP Twins together?

Can you connect two DPP twins together to get a total of 3 satellites? I don't have any extra dishpro duals laying around, but I have a couple of DPP Twins. My guess is no, but I thought I'd ask.

Says it is compatible with DishPro LNBF. Does not mention DPP LNBF; so as you said, probably not.

But if I had a couple of extra's, I would try it and see, and then maybe use it in an emergency on a personal installation.

EDIT: And I'm sure you already knew this, but you could connect two DPP Twin LNBF through a DP-34. But I just realized that you would either need 2 receivers, or add the DPP-44 Power Inserter to the DP-34.

Yeah, I was just wanting to find a way to connect the output from the second DPP Twin to the input on the other DPP Twin in order to get 3 satellite locations. I figured that it wasn't possible. This is really just because I'm going to go HD on my tailgate setup and wanted to be on the lookout for some spare parts if I needed.

It probably would be cheaper to start looking for a DP Dual; but it looks like a DP Twin would also work with the DPP Twin.

What about swapping your 61.5 LNBF with one of the extra DPP Twins you have, provided its not a DPP Twin?

Maybe you and Pepper can meet at an Auburn home game and swap some parts.

Hmm, maybe that is an option.

Or if you wanted you can mail me the DPP twin I could ship you a DP dual in exchange.
